Btw fyi, this post was triggered by Jonathan Eyal's Straits
Times article on the 6 Day War, Jonathan is an excellent
international political analyst and historian, not just about
Europe, but on America (ie. Donald Trump), the Middle East, China
and Korea (ie. Fatty Kim) as well, and the Straits Times is lucky
to have him on board (Jonathan works simultaneously for several
news and media publications around the world).

Did you know... the 6 Day War in 1967, in which Israel
went to war against Egypt + Syria + Jordan + Iraq +
Lebanon + Algeria + Kuwait + Libya + Morocco + Pakistan + Palestine
+ Sudan + Tunisia (italicized countries supportive), and Israel
actually won the war in 6 days, to the shock of the entire world,
including America and Europe, that forever changed the Middle East
(causing endless problems to this day), was all started by an
outsider troublemaker, Russia? Sure there were many complex
contributing factors, but Russia had a direct manipulative hand in
starting the war.

Of course, it's also important to recognize that this is only 1
out of many wars in the Arab–Israeli conflict of the Middle
East.
